Our friend and colleague, Bob Gardner

We are at a loss over the passing of our friend and colleague, Bob Gardner. We worked closely with Bob and the Wellesley Institute over the years on many initiatives and strategies to improve health equity across the province. Bob was passionate, articulate and a strategic thinker, influencing public health policy locally, regionally and provincially. His input and opinion was regularly sought by many, including ourselves, and he generously responded with deep insight, thoughtful perspectives and a touch of humour. There is no doubt he will be greatly missed.
